Careers in Media Studies

Our Media Studies majors go on to attain a variety of media-related jobs, working in public relations, television, advertising, journalism, film, as well as attending graduate schools in media-related fields, in the social sciences, in law, and in business. Our graduates have attained rewarding, high-profile jobs in the media industry and have been accepted in the best graduate schools.

The curriculum is not a vocational program intended to prepare students for particular jobs per se but rather a broad based education focused on study of the media. Between the major and the specialization, students create a personalized education with the kind of intellectual rigor, concentration on communication skills and practice in creative and critical thinking that employers prize so highly.
